[@beatesetzer2441]

beautifully and expertly played! I love the way each person playing expresses it differently to his or her own liking and personality!

[@NikolaosMargaris]

His soul is 'blown' inside a blockflute and is amplified in a magnificent way! I wish I could be able to express myself through a blockflute like he does.

[@redpunk]

Practice more. I'll bet that Bruggen worked pretty hard for that embouchure and the articulation.

te voy a ser sincero la primera vez que lo escuche me perdí en algunas partes, pero ahora hasta se tocarla por las referencias del vídeo, gracias por subirlo :D

[@mewsdo]

So this is a recording from about 50 years ago....? Who can play this well now? Thanks for uploading such a great recording!

[@terrypollak990]

No 😭 one has ever played that well, in my opinion... A few are close, several are great, but the "seemingly" effortless channeling of each composers intent, as if one were speaking it and with every nuance sounding natural and never contrived... This is has never been matched on any instrument... Jordi Savall runs a close second... Of course, just my opinion...

[@soshichiuchii]

This performance (surely excellent!) is of the third set of van Eyck's variations, and Brüggen added the final part of the first set. Mine is a combination of the first and the second sets.

The greatest recorder player of all times. Full stop.

[@andrewcranmer9653]

Brilliant? Certainly. Trail-blazing? Without a doubt. An inspiration? Certainly for me. The greatest recorder play of all times? I'd beg to differ. I don't know who is, but although he would be up there, very personally I'd rate Dan Laurin, Kristine West, Eric Bosgraaf and a few others higher.

[@stevenmccann7080]

@@andrewcranmer9653 Are you having a laugh? No-one was, is or will be better than Bruggen.

[@robappleby583]

The whole concept of greatest recorder player of all time is ridiculous. He was a brilliant musician and virtuoso, but there are many just as good and technical standards now are far higher. Anyone who plays the instrument seriously knows that to be true. This cult of Bruggen is childish.

[@marebaarda3788]

@@robappleby583 le plaisir d'écouter ça ne se discute pas!

[@jasonhurd4379]

It cannot be denied that Frans Brüggen was single-handedly responsible for bringing the recorder to the prominence it enjoys today. Before Brüggen, the recorder was regarded as a child's toy, not to be taken seriously. Brüggen changed all that. No one can take that accomplishment away from him.

Superb - loved this classic recordings since the vinyl era. Out of print now..?

[@MCEngel]

nobody does it better...

[@johntuffin3262]

This is magnificently played. Does anyone know the English translation of the title?

[@enricolippolis]

Doen Daphne d'over schoone Maeght [When Daphne the most beautiful maid]. Modern recordings hive made Daphne one of the hits ol the Lust-hof, but it was a l7th-century favourite as well. The texr and tune come from a 1610s English ballad telling the classical tale of how Phoebus Apollo pursued Daphne so relentlessly that in desperation she cried our to the goddess Diana to tum her into a laurel tree.

What are they playing??

[@Recorder-e3e]

Por qué Bruggen y sus discípulos ejecutan la flauta dulce en posición vertical?????

[@raulishnikovdancer2346]

Creo que la razón practica es para que la saliva caiga (por eso tmbn esta fuera del bloque de su cuerpo, para que no le caiga en el traje y no se note. La otra es porque asi el sonido que sale por el bisel viaja en linea recta hacia la audiencia (puede ser, no se)

[@adrianodasilvatrarbach771]

Very Good

[@FrancisMaxino]

I am concerned about the control of pitch in much of this especially the consistent microtonal bend downwards and what seems to be a lot of slightly hairy overblowing and wild vibrato breadth and rate. Was he really that good compared to todays standards ?

[@FrancisMaxino]

***** My answer to this is who was Carl Dolmetsch ?

[@FrancisMaxino]

***** Perhaps if you listen to Carl's recordings (a contemporary of this man I believe) you would hear the difference in control ? Van Eyck is an excellent beautifully unique player, but Dolmetsch, I believe, in comparison, was an absolute virtuoso...Alas I appear unable to locate any of his recordings here on KZbin, Carl was my inspiration and I still have this record...it is worth a listen, particularly Greensleeves to a Ground Bass www.google.co.nz/search?q=carl+dolmetsch&biw=1120&bih=748&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=rlHHVP6SDa6t7AbW0YG4DQ&sqi=2&ved=0CDAQsAQ#imgdii=_&imgrc=1SyvM777KdLsNM%253A%3BlO-lnH6_JQFrzM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fi.ebayimg.com%252F00%252Fs%252FMTIwMFgxNjAw%252Fz%252FyMYAAOxyQj9RSSAf%252F%2524T2eC16Z%252C!y8E9s2flCSCBRSS!eq6Mw~~60_35.JPG%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.ebay.com%252Fitm%252FCarl-Dolmetsch-Joseph-Saxby-Recorder-Harpsichord-Recital-3-London-LL-1026-M-%252F380647053427%3B300%3B225

[@gabrieleruffini4884]

Maybe I miss something... what is the relation between the discussion about Bruggen's performance (that, by the way, I find excellent) and this "fantasia"? The impact the listener receive coming from an early renaissance marsterpiece and an amatorial composition that is something between a movie soundtrack and new age piece is quite strong!
